In regards to the conversation about future use cases for fossil fuels when they become a disrupted or usurped technology (around 01:12:00 in the video), I would recommend checking out the recent Volts pod on the fate of fossil fuels in the mid-transition (https://www.volts.wtf/p/the-fate-of-fossil-fuel-systems-in). The Volts discussion makes me skeptical that some of those use cases will still be around if the fossil fuel infrastructure declines beyond a minimum viable scale, e.g. who is going to staff a gas peaker plant that only runs 1% of the year (where are you going to find trained staff, available on stand-by, for a job that takes 87 hours a year) and will there be sufficient gas infrastructure to even supply the fuel and how much will it cost.
